RE: [cobalt-users] Help with CNAME

["Ben Hayes" <ben@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

I'm new to this so I apologize for the confusion.  I just want www.name.net
to point to www.name.org.  I don't have a virtual site created for
www.name.net.

Yes, the CNAME should work.

You say you have a virtual site name.org and another site name.net --> Is
www.name.net also a virtual site? If yes, why would you
want it to point to www.name.org?
